Nitrate chlorides are mixed anion compounds that contain both nitrate (NO 3 −) and chloride (Cl −) ions. Various compounds are known, including amino acid salts, [ 1 ] and also complexes from iron group , rare-earth , and actinide metals.
Chlorine nitrate, with chemical formula ClONO 2 is an important atmospheric gas present in the stratosphere. It is an important sink of reactive chlorine and nitrogen, and thus its formation and destruction play an important role in the depletion of ozone.
A chloride ion is a structural component of some proteins; for example, it is present in the amylase enzyme. For these roles, chloride is one of the essential dietary mineral (listed by its element name chlorine). Serum chloride levels are mainly regulated by the kidneys through a variety of transporters that are present along the nephron. [19]
An example of back titration, the Volhard method, named after Jacob Volhard, involves the addition of excess silver nitrate to the analyte; the silver chloride is filtered, and the remaining silver nitrate is titrated against ammonium thiocyanate, [1] with ferric ammonium sulfate as an indicator which forms blood-red [Fe(OH 2) 5 (SCN)] 2+ at the end point:
The critical relative humidity of most salts decreases with increasing temperature. For instance, the critical relative humidity of ammonium nitrate decreases 22% with a temperature from 0 °C to 40 °C (32 °F to 104 °F). The critical relative humidity of several fertilizer salts is given in table 1:
Also called Pink curing salt #2. It contains 6.25% sodium nitrite, 4% sodium nitrate, and 89.75% table salt. [4] The sodium nitrate found in Prague powder #2 gradually breaks down over time into sodium nitrite, and by the time a dry cured sausage is ready to be eaten, no sodium nitrate should be left. [3]
Ammonium nitrate is an important fertilizer with NPK rating 34-0-0 (34% nitrogen). [17] It is less concentrated than urea (46-0-0), giving ammonium nitrate a slight transportation disadvantage. Ammonium nitrate's advantage over urea is that it is more stable and does not rapidly lose nitrogen to the atmosphere.
Californium(III) chloride (CfCl 3) is an emerald green compound with a hexagonal structure that can be prepared by reacting Cf 2 O 3 with hydrochloric acid at 500 °C. [8] CfCl 3 is then used as a feeder stock to form the yellow-orange triiodide CfI 3, which in turn can be reduced to the lavender-violet diiodide CfI 2. [9]
